If Paul is out for game 6, I can see the Rockets going to a PnR offense where the ISO'ing will be cut to a minimum and Harden will attack right off the screen and try to create and/or get his buckets. We know hes capable of doing that and going off, so I wouldn't write them off yet for it to come back to Houston.

That shyt will be too predictable for Golden state. Also Steph catches a break now that he doesn’t have to chase Chris around. Part of Chris’s offense was taking anyone off the switch and going at curry. Made curry work more on defense than he would like. This now puts pressure on harden and judging from the last 2 games, I’m not sure that’s a good thing.

Lue is light years worse. Dude just stares into the mist while mouth gaping open. He must have the worst case of dry mouth

And once again...the Rockets do NOT need CP3 to beat the Warriors

Ya'll will see this tomorrow night...shyt can I make a bet in the Sportsbook??

Rockets win without CP3

Steph may not be 100% but I don't think he's really that hurt. Games 1 and 2 I was screaming he wasn't right too because you could see him struggling making hard cuts. He couldn't take anybody really off the dribble. I'm seeing that quickness back and him breaking people off the dribble. The difference being that Houston has long defenders that can stick to him on the perimeter and they don't care if he drives so when he's one-on-one they are strictly playing his three point shot close.

My point gawd is down

Snatch harden game 6, load the guns for game 7 back here.

Damn

Sadly this is the absolute best thing that could've happened to the NBA as a whole. Now either you still get the what is probably the most popular team in GS in the finals or the Rockets who will be looked at as vulnerable and adds intrigue into the finals now that the East has a shot.. If GS wins it completely builds the narrative for next year that Houston would have beat GS if not for the injury so people aren't as quick as assume the regular season is a forgone conclusion now. Plus with GS struggling this round people have hope that they can be beaten.

I hate this for CP3. If you believe they would have won or not CP3 is right on the door step of a championship and now has to sit back and hope his team can steal one with him out.

I think Harden is already tired and now with CP3 out the Rockets will lean on a heavy diet of Harden which is going to kill them. A tired Harden turns it over and takes lots of bad shots and often try to do too much. I hate that the last two games are going to have the black cloud of the CP3 injury over it.

Gerald green and EG has done a great job defending Steph at times.

Totally agree. I can’t stand CP3s on court antics but dude is a fukking baller. I obviously want the warriors to win but winning with CP3 out definitely doesn’t feel great. But thems the breaks
40 years of bad karma turning into good karma for the past 4 years for the franchise.

If the warriors make it out this round and to the finals. Trust Joe lacob is retooling that bench during the off season. I’m sure the warriors organization are scared shytless after last night.
